The hall was very silent, and the needle drop could be heard, and after a long time, Li Ercai sighed and asked in a deep voice.

"Where is that gunpowder now? Is it in the hands of the prince? ”

Li Yong shook his head slightly.

"Back to the saint, the minister didn't know, the minister was not good at interrogation, so the minister didn't continue the trial, so he hurriedly entered the palace."

Li Er nodded slightly when he heard this, where is Li Yong not good at interrogation, it is obvious that he doesn't want to interrogate, presumably Li Yong was startled after asking about the prince and Hou Selei, and he didn't want to go on the trial, but who is it, he doesn't dare to try it, this is a big matter of rebellion!

"Have you checked to see if the guns and muskets of the firearms superintendent have been stolen?"

Li Er asked in a deep voice, and Li Yong hurriedly said.

"After knowing that the gunpowder might be stolen, the minister asked Zhang Chunning to investigate thoroughly, and asked the saint to rest assured that the artillery and muskets were not stolen."

Li Er breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and nodded.

"The management method of the musket and artillery you got at the beginning is a bit more cumbersome, but it is very effective, and there will be no loopholes, which is good!"

In fact, Li Er is not very afraid of muskets, he is afraid of artillery, the range of muskets is limited after all, but artillery is different, powerful and long-range, if the artillery is stolen, then he will not be able to sleep and eat, in case one day he is in the Liangyi Hall to review the chapter, suddenly a cannon comes, there is no way to guard against it.

"Where's that inner ghost of the firearms warden?"

Li Er asked in a deep voice.

"It's still locked up in the firearms prison, please send someone to pick it up."

Li Yong hurriedly said, Li Erhuo got up and said in a deep voice.

"Let's go, go to the firearms prison!"

"Huh? The saint is going to the firearms prison? The sage's day is full of opportunities......"

Li Yong hurriedly persuaded him, he didn't want to get involved in this kind of heavenly family matter, so he still asked the emperor to send someone to bring Song Degang to the secret prison, and he could be interrogated as much as he liked, it had nothing to do with him, this was pulling him into the water!

"There's so much nonsense, it's not as secret as your firearms supervisor, let's go! Li Junxian, order five hundred guards, and go out of the palace with a certain person! If anyone dares to spread what you have just heard, he will be killed! ”

After saying that, Li Er strode out of the hall, Li Yong could only follow helplessly, the emperor's sudden arrival made the entire firearms supervisor shake, Zhang Chunning was even more stunned, stunned and excited, he didn't know why the emperor suddenly came, and nothing happened to the firearms supervisor recently! There is no major breakthrough in the development of firearms, and besides, the county prince didn't say hello in advance! Everyone, get ready.

"Okay, let's disperse, no one is allowed to approach the council hall, and also, escort Song Degang over!"

Li Er strode into the conference hall, the guards surrounded the conference hall, Zhang Chunning and the guards escorted Song Degangjin to the conference hall together, at this moment, even if he was stupid, he understood that the emperor was here to have something to do with Song Degangjin, but he was very puzzled, Song Degangjin was just a small supervisor, even if he made any mistakes, could he still alarm the emperor? Besides, what other mistake can Song Degangjin make? Could it be that Song Degang was suspected of stealing muskets and artillery? But he had just thoroughly investigated, and the muskets and artillery were not missing at all, thinking of this, Zhang Chunning's heart moved, could it be that the explosion of the gunpowder warehouse was related to Song Degang? If it was just an explosion in the warehouse, it wouldn't alarm the emperor, could it be that the gunpowder in the warehouse was really stolen, and it was related to Song Degang? In this case, then Song Degang is really not a pity to die, no, it is an unforgivable crime, and it may even affect the entire firearms prison.

"Qiqi Sage, Song Degangjin has been brought!"

Li Junxian, who was guarding outside the hall, said respectfully.

"Come in!"

Li Er said in a deep voice, at this moment, Song Degangjin already knew that the emperor was coming, and even the emperor was alarmed, so his desperate heart was like ashes, Song Degangjin knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed.

"Meet the saint, meet the prince, the saint spares his life! The county prince spares his life! ”

Li Yong didn't pay attention to Song Degangjin and hugged Li Er's fist.

"Sage, this is Song Degangjin, the person has been brought, although the sage is interrogated, the minister still has important things to do, so the minister will retire!"

After finishing speaking, Li Yong pulled his legs and left, interrogating Song Degangjin without wanting to hear half a word.

"If there is anything important, don't rush at this moment, stand next to so-and-so honestly!"

Li Er didn't have a good airway.

"Sage, this doesn't have to be, right? It's useless for the minister to stay here......"

Li Yong stopped and explained, Li Er glanced at Li Yong and was speechless.

"What are you afraid of?"

Is this afraid? is unwilling to get involved in these things, Li Yong feels that it is enough to give Li Er a wake-up call, and then Li Er will naturally deal with it, but Li Er said so, Li Yong had to come back and stand by Li Er's side, which is really nothing to be afraid of.

"Song Degangjin, tell me the original story!"

Li Yong commanded in a deep voice.

"Yes, yes, yes, it was in June last year, when the villain was drinking in a tavern and met Hussere, and he heard that the villain was the superintendent of firearms, and he admired him very much, and invited the villain to drink...... The villain also thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was the prince of the country, and he would definitely be able to be the emperor in the future, so the villain became greedy and attached himself to His Royal Highness the Prince...... In this way, most of the gunpowder in the warehouse was transported out, and then the villain detonated the remaining gunpowder in order to hide it...... The villain really couldn't steal the firearms, so he could only copy a copy of the manufacturing drawings of the musket and the cannon to Hussere......"

Song Degang told everything like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

"The saint, the county prince, the villain only thinks about seeking wealth and living a good life, and he doesn't think about rebellion! Villains are all persecuted! If you don't obey, you will let the villain's family die, and the villain didn't expect that they are all crazy, and the villain can't get off when he gets on the thief ship! Please be gracious to the saints! Grace! ”

Song Degangjin kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, with snot and tears falling down.

"What about the gunpowder? Where are you now? ”

Li Er asked in a deep voice.

"This little man doesn't know either! The villain really doesn't know! The villain never saw that batch of gunpowder again! ”

Song Degangjin hurriedly said.

"If the county prince is not mistaken, you did not participate in the improvement of muskets and artillery later, and the process of muskets and artillery is also very open, where did you get all the drawings?"

Li Yong asked in a deep voice, and Song Degangjin hurriedly said.

"The villain didn't know the drawings that had been improved later, so the villain gave the drawings that were initially tested."

Li Yong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, this is okay, this shows that there is only this Song Degang in the firearms prison who has a problem, Li Er doesn't understand this, and he is not most concerned about this, so he asked in a deep voice.

"Did they make firearms? How many were made in total? ”

Song Degang hurriedly replied.

"This little man doesn't know either! The villains didn't get involved, and they didn't know where they made the firearms, but Hussere sent people to ask some questions, and then he stopped asking questions. ”

It seemed that this person had limited knowledge and couldn't ask anything, so he waved his hand.

"Drag it out and bury it!"

Li Junxian immediately took the guards forward and dragged Song Degang Jin out, Song Degang thought that he would die, but he didn't expect to die so soon, he was directly frightened and fainted, the hall was quiet again, Li Er's face was calm, and he frowned deeply, all of this proved that the prince was indeed plotting to rebel, Li Yong stood beside Li Er and didn't speak, he didn't know what to say, his son who only valued him was going to turn against him, how disappointed and painful he was in his heart can be imagined, but, Li Yong felt that Li Er could withstand such a blow, after all, he was a generation of heroes, he had experienced so many magnificent years, and his heart had already been sharpened like steel, so Li Er didn't need to be comforted, after a long time, Li Er asked faintly.

"Li Yong, do you think the prince is going to rebel?"

Nonsense, of course, it is to rebel, Li Yong muttered.

"Since his heart was killed with a rod, the prince's temperament has changed greatly, he is moody, suspicious and extreme, according to the current evidence, the prince is likely to have a plan to rebel."

Li Er sighed.

"Since the beginning of a certain ascending the throne, Gao Ming will be established as the prince, and a certain will train him, wanting to train him into a generation of Ming Jun, continue the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, over the years, although the prince has also made repeated mistakes, the government and the opposition have many speculations, but a certain has never thought about Yi Chu, the prince is the prince of the country, is the future lord of the Tang Dynasty, it is impossible to always be kind to him, it is impossible to be as indulgent as the green sparrow and pheasant slave, because he has the heavy responsibility of the society! In fact, a certain also noticed that a certain knew that the prince had installed many cronies during the year he was in prison, and the prince had secretly recruited a lot of rangers, and some words were said for fear that it would hurt the feelings of the father and son, so he could only take the opportunity to reward Qingque to beat him. A certain is also well-intentioned! ”

Li Yong groaned.

"The saint does have good intentions, but it's a pity that the prince didn't understand it!"

Li Er couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.

"Let's go, let's go to your house for two drinks!"

A group of people left the firearms prison, towards Lijiazhuang roaring, hundreds of horsemen drove straight into Lijiazhuang, such a big movement directly shocked the gatehouse of the county mansion, looking at the emperor who took the lead, they were even more panicked, fortunately, they have seen the world, not only can recognize the emperor at a glance, and the heart is not panicked at all, Li Yong jumped off the horse, while accompanying the emperor to go inside, while commanding.

"Let the kitchen prepare the wine and food, and I will accompany the saint to have two drinks!"

Li Er waved his hand.

"You don't have to eat it, let's drink two glasses of wine first!"

The housekeeper was busy and trotted off, Li Lizhen was painting, and Chunlan hurriedly came in with a curtain.

"Princess, there is a word from the front yard that the saint is here, and the grandfather is accompanying him!"

Chunlan said urgently, Li Lizhi was taken aback when she heard it, and hurriedly asked.

"Why did my father come suddenly?"

Chunlan shook her head and said.

"This slave doesn't know, it's just that the messenger said that the grandfather accompanied the saint into the door and asked the kitchen to prepare the wine and food, and the saint said that the food was not necessary, let the wine be served first!"

Li Lizhi couldn't help but move in her heart when she heard this, there was obviously something wrong with being in such a hurry to drink, and then thinking of what Li Yong had been investigating recently, she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, it seems that Li Yong found out, and it was determined that it was the prince who rebelled, otherwise her father's reaction would not be so big, thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little resentful of the prince in her heart, why rebel against a good family? Why get to the point of cannibalism?

"How can you do without food and wine? It's too hurtful, let's go to the kitchen and let's buy a few simple dishes first! ”

Li Lizhi got up and said, it was evening, the kitchen was already preparing dinner, seeing that the princess came to the kitchen in person, she immediately served a few hot dishes and a few cold dishes, the housekeeper walked into the hall with the wine jar, the wine jar still had the smell of earth, this is Li Yong's buried treasure of good wine, Li Yong patted open the mud seal, the tempting aroma of wine overflowed, Li Er glanced at the jade cup on the table, no good air.

"Look at your little bit of talent, change the big bowl!"

Wine is a treasured good wine, but it is definitely a spirit, in the past, Li Er, Cheng Biting Jin, they all had the stinky problem of drinking with a big bowl, and then Li Yong made a line of heavenly spirits, and they all got rid of these stinky problems, I didn't expect Li Er to come again today, yes, you are in a bad mood, you are the biggest, Li Yong obediently took the big bowl, poured a big bowl, Li Er picked up the big bowl and poured it directly up, and then spit out a long mouthful of wine.

"Good wine! Enjoyable! ”

Li Lizhi walked in with the maid carrying the food box and happened to watch this scene.

"Father is really, how can you use such a big bowl? It's a spirit, and you don't care about your body at all! ”

Li Lizhi said angrily, and after finishing speaking, Li Lizhi couldn't help but give Li Yong a roll of his eyes, and he didn't know how to persuade him.

"Grab some food and press the wine!"

Li Lizhi said while personally taking out the dishes from the food box and placing them in front of the emperor, although he was heartbroken by his son, but his daughter ironed in the end, Li Er's mood was also a lot better, and he sighed.

"Changle, Li Yong, you two are good boys!"

Seeing that her father's eyes were red, Li Lizhi was also very sad in her heart, she complained about the prince even more in her heart, she really wanted to ask the prince, what did his father can't do with him, he actually wanted to rebel?

"What are you doing? Pour the wine! You drink too! ”

Li Er shouted in a deep voice, Li Yong poured wine, and at the same time snorted at Li Li, signaling her to leave, with her here, whether it was a saint or him, some things were not easy to say.

"It's rare for my father to come here, and my daughter will go and prepare a few appetizers for you, and I will definitely let Lang Jun accompany you to have a good drink!"

After Li Lizhi finished speaking, he was blessed and retreated, Li Yong accompanied Li Er to make a bowl of wine, but he was wondering what Li Er was thinking in his heart.
